How can I set a front panel window's "Origin" property, as of LabVIEW 8.2?

This "Front Panel Window" property appears to have gone away since LabVIEW 7.x. Is there some new way to set a panel's origin?

It's not gone away, it's moved a bit.

The splitter bars allow you to have multiple panels on a single VI, so they had to change things a bit.

First you need to get a reference to the "VI Panel", then "Pnl Panes []" (note this outputs an array of refs), then index out your panel and finally you'll get to the Origin property. Since you only have a single front panel, you can just use the Index Array function and grab the first element from the Panes property.
